Forest fires are this week raging
fiercely again in the Peck settlement,

vicinity of Ansanias Folk’s, the old

being done to fences und young timber.

Stomach troubles would more quick~

cause, rather than the effect, would
come into practice. A tiny, inside, hid-

to the Kidneys. When these “inside
nerves” faii, then the organs must
falter. Dr. Shoop’s Restorative is di-
rected specifically to these failing
nerves. Within 48 hours after starting

We have on file, for publication, a
very interesting communication from
the able pen of Dr. T. F. Livengood, of
Elizabeth, N. J. It may not be publish-
ed before the present political cam-
paign is over, but it is well worth
waiting for. It isof a reminiscent na.
ture and containe many interesting
things concerning the early history of
Salisbury. As an entertaining writer
and story-teller, the genial doctor has
few equals.
Nicholas Murphy, of Grantsville,
Md., has our thanks for a basketful of
extra nice potatoes of the good old
Chili variety, the kind that always
taste good and seldom rot in the
ground. Mr. Murphy is quite a farmer,
and has always been liberal and hos-
pitable. He resides at the old Wegman
homestead in Grantsville, where the
editor and his brothers spent many
happy days with Mrs. Muarphy’s broth-
ers, when all were boys together.

more than skin deep—it ix constitu-

Mr. Dennis Stevanas, a popular and
well known young farmer of Elk Lick
township, and Miss Araminta Miller,
an attractive and estimable young
woman of Garrett county, Md., were
united in wedlock last Sunday fore-
noon, at the Springs Mennonjte church,
by the Re? Gideon D. Miller. After
the ceremony a fine reception was
given to the couple at the home of the
groom’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. 8S.
Stevanus. About thirty or forty guests
participated in the happy event. The
bride is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs:
Eli 8. Miller, who conduct a farm and
green house near the Mason & Dixon
line, about midway between Salisbury,
Pa., and Grantsville, Md. The bride
and groom are very estimable and
popular young people; and THE STAR
joins their many friends in wishing
them much happiness and prosperity.
| Our old friend and college chum,
Albert Sanner, P. B. H., of Somerset,
{
| was a pleasant caller at Tae STAR of-
many other accomplishments, Prof.
Sanner is a printer of world-wide repu-
tation. but he hasn’t been working
much at the trade in recent years. He
is an ardent Prohibitionist, and of late
years has been devoting most of his
time to putting booze out of the way.
He did yeoman service in that capacity,
right here in Salisbury, last eek, but
didn’t put it quite all out of the way
before he left town, as he wanted to
leave some missionary’ work here for
Congress ran Bill Likins and others.
Prof. Sanner is a well read man, as his
physiognomy plainly indicates, and he
knows how to fight booze in the most
effective manner to get it out of the
way. He says.it is useless to pray to
God to put whisky out of the world:
but goes on the theory that the way to
get whisky out of the way is to get as
much of it as possible; whenever there
is an opportunity to do so, and then
proceed to make short work of it as
speedily as possible. His position is a
logical one, and he lives up to what he
believes.
WOULD MORTGAGE THE FARM.
A farmer on Rural Route 2, Empire,
Ga., W. A. Floyd by name, says: “Buck-
len’s Arnica-Salve cured the two worst
sores I over saw ; one on my hand and
one on my leg. It is worth more than
its weight in gold. I would ndt be
without it if I had to mortgage the
farm to get it.” Only 25c. at E. H.
Miller’s drug store. 11-1
Murderer Escapes.
Joe De Francesco, who was convicted
of the murder of a fellow countryman
in Elk Lick township, in 1908, and who
was sentenced to death and afterwards
had the death sentence commuted to
life imprisonment, owing tothe fact
that he was violently insane, escaped
from the Dixmont Asylum, Tuesday
night of last week, and there is no clue
to his whereabouts.
SAVED HIS BOY’S LIFE.
“My three year old boy was badly
constipated, had a high fever and was
in an awful condition. Igave him two
doses of Foley’s Orino Laxative and
the next morning the fever was gone
and he was entirely well. Foley's
Orino Laxative saved his life.” A.

Money In Bees.
A pleasant and profitable eccupation
for a woman living in the country is
bee-keeping. One requires a small
capital for this business; also one needs
to study enough to understand the
habits and needs of the bees, so as to
care for them properly and obtain the
best results. It means thought and
pinstaking, but it also means success.
One woman who keeps bees says that
her income is now twelve hundred dol-
lars a year, and she started with two
hives.—New Idea Woman’s Magazine

MARRIED MAN IN TROUBLE.
A married man who permits any
member of the family to take anything
except Foley’s Honey and Tar, for
coughs, colds and lung trouble, is guilty
of neglect. Nothing else is as good for
all pulmonary troubles. The genuine
Foley’s Honey and Tar contains no
opiates and is in a yellow package.

Fn B. & 0. Freight Wreek.
Four refrigerator cars and a caboose
were smashed in a freight wreck near
Brooks’ tunnel, Tuesday morning. En-
gineer Ed White was eastbound with
the fast freight in charge of Conductor
William F. Howard, when he collided
with a westbound freight in charge of
Engineer Calvin R. Shupp and Con-
ductor Board.
It was necessary to call out the
Connellsville wrecking crew, but be-
fore the wreck could be cleaned up,
train No. 6 was delayed for a short
time. It is believed that the wreck
was caused by a misunderstanding of
orders.

GOOD HOME RECIPE.
Mix This Simple, Helpful Recipe at
Home and Try It, Anyway.
Get from any prescription pharma-
cist the following:
“ Fluid Extract Dandelion, one half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
Shake well in a bottle and take a
teaspoonful dose after each meal and
at bedtime.
The above is considered as the most
certain prescription ever written to re-
lieve Backache, Kidney Trouble, Weak
Bladder and all forms of Urinary diffi-
culties. This mixture acts promptly
on the eliminative tissues of the Kid-
neys, enabling them to filter and strain
the uric acid and other waste matter
from the blood which causes Rheuma-
tism.
Some persons Who suffer with the
afflictions may not feel inclined to
place much confidence in this simple
mixture, yet those who have tried it
say the results are simply surprising,
the relief being effected without the
slightest injury to the stomach or other
organs.
Mix some and give it a trial. It cer-
tainly comes-highly recommended. It
is. the prescription of an eminent au-
thority, whose entire reputation, it is
said, was established by it.
A druggist here at home, whenjasked,
stated that he could either supply the
ingredients or mix the prescription for
our readers, also recommends it as
harmless.

The Garret County Scribbler.
To the Garrett county scribbler who
has lately been posing as a Republican
converted to Bryanism, and has been
tlopping over through the columns of
the Oakland Journal and Democrat,
we have the following parting words to
say:
You never were a Republican, and
neither are you a genuine Christian.
Many people have you set down as a
big, mushy, idle, palavering Pemocrat,
one wha is far a better jydge of rotgut
whisky than of other men’s religious
motives and beliefs. We think we
could tell your name the first guess.
If.you are not a deceiver, be man
enough to come out from behind your
nom de plume and fight for your con-
victions in the open. Take off your
mask, you cringing coward and de-
cents. We dare you! We defy you to
publish your real name!
WOMAN INTERRUPTS POLITICAL
SPEAKER.
A well dressed woman interrupted a
political speaker recently, by’ continu-
ally coughing. If she had taken Foley’s
Honey and Tar it would have cured
her cough quickly and expelled the
cold from her system. The genuine
Foley’s Honey and Tar contains no
opiates, and is in a yellow package.
